Summary

The commission approved contracts and a resolution for the BRJ road project; Gladden Construction was the low bidder at $4,582,042 and the project is 100% federal and state funded with no county dollars required.

County staff presented the BRJ (federal/state) road project bids and associated documents. The low bidder for the construction contract was Gladden Construction at $4,582,042. The board considered the cost participation/construction maintenance agreement, the county federal‑aid contract with the DOT and the construction engineering agreement (KJ selected previously for construction engineering).

Staff said the project is fully federally and state funded; county participation was limited to preliminary engineering already paid and electronic signature of cost‑share documents where applicable. Commissioners moved to approve all four requested motions together; the motions passed unanimously.

Ending: The county will sign required documents and the project will proceed under the awarded contracts; no county dollars are obligated for construction at this time.
